An adjourned meeting was held last night,
Richard L. Carne, President, in the chair,
and Herbert L. Ramey, Secretary. Two
Young men were nominated for active mem

adoption of new uniform, which was satis-
fsctorily accomplished. The old fire hat is
to be discarded for white leather helmet
with gilded ridges, having the same front
and decorations, and the shirt is to be light
blue, of the shade and pattern of that worn
in the parades of 1880 and 1882, the old
belt and black psntsloons being retained.

will prevent the company from being again
